The natural course of untreated RDS is characterized by progressive worsening of cyanosis and dyspnea. [clinicalgate.com]

Most of these cases were less severely affected, had dyspnea and progressive cough, sometimes accompanied by cyanosis, finger clubbing, failure to thrive in the younger ones, and asthenia or weight loss in the others. [respiratory-research.biomedcentral.com]

These data support the feasibility of using immunoanalyses of BAL fluid to evaluate chronic pediatric pulmonary disorders in more detail. [respiratory-research.biomedcentral.com]

SP-B was readily detected in the lung tissue of the control patients with various pulmonary disorders but was absent in the case patient's lung tissue ( Figure 1 ). SP-A was readily detected in all lung samples in roughly comparable amounts. [nejm.org]

We suggest heightened vigilance and consultation with a reference laboratory in detecting similar mutations in term newborns presenting with unexplained respiratory failure. [content.iospress.com]

These results suggest that SP-B and SP-C have different contributions to inter- and intra-membrane lipid dynamics, and that their combined action could provide unique effects to modulate structure and dynamics of pulmonary surfactant membranes and films [biochemj.org]
